Entergy Hosts Driver’s License Restoration Clinic on EmPOWERing Pro Bono Day

Posted on by sHq_LoGiNz

Entergy recently partpated in EmPOWERing Pro Bono Day, an industry-wide service initiative providing free legal support to low-income and vulnerable residents. Partnering with Jones Walker LLP, Baker Botts L.L.P., the Louisiana Office of Motor Vehicles, and four local judges, Entergy hosted a Driver’s License Restoration Clinic at the Louisiana Office of Motor Vehicles in New Orleans. The clinic offered no-cost assistance to residents addressing issues that prevent the reinstatement of their driver’s licenses.

“For many individuals, a suspended license is more than an inconvenience – it’s a barrier to work, childcare and daily stability,” said Daniel Falstad, senior vice president, general counsel and secretary at Entergy. “Being able to provide that support and to see people leave with real solutions in hand reinforces the importance of partnerships like this to our community.”

The clinic served 82 residents from Orleans and Jefferson Parishes, providing guidance on documentation challenges, fines, and legal matters that can delay license reinstatement. Attendees reported that the reinstatement of their license would relieve financial and emotional burdens, restore independence, and open pathways to employment. Many participants left the clinic feeling relieved and empowered with renewed independence.

“Restoring a driver’s license can be life-changing for anyone who needs transportation for work, school and daily responsibilities,” said Deanna Rodriguez, president and CEO at Entergy New Orleans. “We are committed to partnering with community organizations whose mission includes removing obstacles that stand in the way of economic opportunity.”

Entergy is a national leader in corporate pro bono work. It became the first U.S. company to hire a full-time pro bono counsel in 2018 and remains one of only three with dedicated in-house pro bono leadership. Since 2012, Entergy attorneys have contributed over 22,000 hours of legal service—an in-kind investment exceeding $6.1 million. Their work supports a broad range of needs, including life-planning documents for first responders, FEMA claims, veterans’ benefits, family law matters, affidavits to help families with home ownership and assistance for nonprofits and minority- and women-owned small businesses.

We extend our appreciation to the legal professionals who volunteered from Entergy, Jones Walker LLP and Baker Botts L.L.P., the Louisiana Office of Motor Vehicles team, and the participating judges whose service made the clinic possible. Through collaboration with valued community partners, Entergy will continue to advance initiatives that promote financial mobility and improve quality of life for its customers.

MORE THAN 4,700 TURKEYS COLLECTED AT THE 2025 FOURLEAF TURKEY DRIVE AMID RECORD LEVELS OF FOOD INSECURITY ACROSS LONG ISLAND

Posted on by sHq_LoGiNz

Long Island’s Largest One-Day Food Drive Collects 4,767 Frozen Turkeys, 23,162 Pounds of Food and $117,244 in Donations for Island Harvest Food Bank

One in 12 Long Islanders – More Than 240,000 People – Struggle with Food Insecurity

BETHPAGE, N.Y., Dec. 8, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — After this year’s Thanksgiving holiday, FourLeaf Federal Credit Union would like to express its gratitude to the corporations, organizations, individual donors, and volunteers that helped make this year’s FourLeaf Turkey Drive a success. Amid record-high levels of food insecurity across Long Island, the 17th annual event collected 4,767 frozen turkeys, 23,162 pounds of food, and $117,244 in donations to benefit Island Harvest Food Bank. FourLeaf Federal Credit Union personally made a $50,000 donation to Island Harvest at the drive.


FourLeaf Turkey Drive

“Each year, the FourLeaf Turkey Drive reminds us of what’s possible when a community comes together,” said Linda Armyn, President and CEO of FourLeaf Federal Credit Union. “We’re deeply grateful to our corporate partners, local organizations, and the thousands of individuals who donated their time, food, and resources to help Long Islanders in need. Their generosity is the heartbeat of this effort. At a time when food insecurity continues to rise, these partnerships are essential, ensuring that families across our region can sit down to a Thanksgiving meal and feel the support of a caring community.”

Since its launch in 2008, the FourLeaf Turkey Drive has become Long Island’s largest one-day food drive, collecting nearly 60,000 turkeys and 290,000 pounds of food for Island Harvest. All donations directly help supply Thanksgiving meals to families in need through Island Harvest’s network of over 300 food pantries, soup kitchens, and other hunger-relief programs across Nassau and Suffolk counties.

“With proposed federal cutbacks and other economic uncertainty, support from our longtime partner, FourLeaf Federal Credit Union, and the generosity of Long Islanders and businesses who support the annual FourLeaf Turkey Drive have such an impact in helping our neighbors in need enjoy a brighter, more hopeful holiday season,” said Randi Shubin Dresner, President and CEO, Island Harvest.

This year’s FourLeaf Turkey Drive happened during a time of great need. According to Feeding America’s® 2023 Map the Meal Gap report, 240,470 Long Islanders lived with food insecurity in 2023, a 10% increase from 2022 when 221,190 residents were food insecure. That means one in 12 Long Islanders (8.3%) struggles to put food on the table, compared to one in 13 the year before. Among children, 44,520 experienced food insecurity in 2023, representing 7.2% of all children on Long Island.

Island Harvest is expected to distribute a record 20 million pounds of food this year, exceeding levels distributed during the pandemic. “Many Long Island families continue to face difficulties paying for increased prices for such basic commodities as food, clothing and fuel. Add in the region’s high cost of living, and many find themselves living on the edge of making tough decisions between paying for rent, transportation and medicine, and buying food,” explains Dresner.

FourLeaf Federal Credit Union, the largest credit union in the Northeast and the 15th largest in the nation, remains committed to supporting the communities it serves through its FourLeaf Cares program, investing heavily in local initiatives that promote equity, belonging, and stronger, healthier communities.

STEM Next Opportunity Fund and Qualcomm Partner on Pilot to Bring AI Learning to Afterschool

Posted on by sHq_LoGiNz

San Diego, Calif., December 8, 2025 /3BL/ – STEM Next Opportunity Fund today announced a new strategy that will expand access to artificial intelligence (AI) and emerging-technology learning through afterschool and summer programs nationwide. With leadership support from Qualcomm Incorporated, STEM Next is now piloting a multi-state project in Montana, Ohio, Pennsylvania and West Virginia that equips afterschool educators to integrate AI literacy into their programming. 

Educators will build foundational AI literacy and lead youth in applying it to real-world projects, such as designing solutions to community challenges or analyzing local data, while helping them understand and reflect on the ethical implications of how AI is used. Insights from the pilot will inform a scalable national model.

The effort positions afterschool and summer learning as critical infrastructure in the nation’s strategy to build AI literacy and workforce readiness amid rapid technological advancement. This is a key initiative of STEM Next’s Next Level Tech Center of Excellence, of which Qualcomm is a founding partner. 

“AI is transforming every part of our lives, and every young person deserves the chance to understand and shape that future,” said Ron Ottinger, Executive Director of STEM Next Opportunity Fund. “Afterschool and summer programs are powerful hands-on learning environments that center mentorship and teamwork, giving youth guided support to apply technology creatively and responsibly to address real-world challenges. With Qualcomm’s collaboration, we’re ensuring that afterschool and summer learning is part of the national strategy to equip youth with AI literacy and future-ready skills.”

About STEM Next Opportunity Fund

Schick® & Skintimate® Launch Free Disposable Razor and Packaging Recycling Program With TerraCycle

Posted on by sHq_LoGiNz

National program offers consumers a simple, no-cost way to recycle eligible disposable razors & their associated plastic packaging

TRENTON, N.J., Dec. 8, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Schick® and Skintimate®, two of Edgewell Personal Care’s flagship shave care brands, have launched the Edgewell Schick and Skintimate Free Recycling Program in collaboration with international recycling leader TerraCycle®. This initiative allows consumers across the continental U.S. to collect and recycle all Schick® and Skintimate® disposable razors and their plastic packaging through TerraCycle®. While the cardboard packaging component can be recycled curbside, where accepted.


TerraCycle (PRNewsfoto/TerraCycle US Inc.)

Schick and Skintimate launch the Edgewell Schick and Skintimate Free Recycling Program with recycling leader TerraCycle.

The Edgewell Schick and Skintimate Free Recycling Program offers consumers a simple way to dispose of hard-to-recycle items. By collecting and recycling disposable razors and their packaging through the program, these hard-to-recycle items are kept out of landfills and incinerators.

“Razors are made from a mix of metal and plastic, which means most local recycling services can’t process these items. As a result, consumers are often left without a real recycling option,” said Tom Szaky, Founder and CEO of TerraCycle. “The Edgewell Schick and Skintimate Free Recycling Program addresses this challenge by giving consumers a free, nationwide option to recycle these products and make disposal easier.”

To participate, consumers can visit the Edgewell Schick and Skintimate Free Recycling Program to sign up and download a free shipping label. Used Schick and Skintimate disposable razors and the associated plastic packaging can be collected in any secure, puncture-proof box. Once full, the box can be sealed, labeled, and sent to TerraCycle for recycling. Plastics are processed into pellets used to make products such as park benches, picnic tables, and decking, and the metals are smelted into sheeting, ingots, or bar stock that serve as base materials for stamped applications like nuts, bolts, washers, and rings.

“Our well-loved brands are always seeking new ideas and innovative solutions to bring joy to everyday life,” said Amy Knight, Vice President, Global Sustainability at Edgewell Personal Care. “Through our partnership with TerraCycle, we’re offering a convenient recycling option that helps consumers give products a second life, reflecting our sustainability strategy to support circularity where possible and encouraging more participation in recycling.”

The Edgewell Schick and Skintimate Free Recycling Program is open to individuals, households, schools, and community organizations across the continental United States. To learn more about how TerraCycle partners with businesses to recycle traditionally hard-to-recycle waste, visit www.terracycle.com.

About Edgewell
Edgewell (NYSE: EPC) is a leading pure-play consumer products company with an attractive, diversified portfolio of established brand names such as Schick®, Wilkinson Sword® and Billie® men’s and women’s shaving systems and disposable razors; Edge and Skintimate® shave preparations; Playtex®, Stayfree®, Carefree® and o.b.® feminine care products; Banana Boat®, Hawaiian Tropic®, Bulldog®,  Jack Black®, and Cremo® sun and skin care products; and Wet Ones® products.

Turning Point with David Jeremiah celebrates 25 years of national broadcasting

SAN DIEGO, Dec. 8, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — After an amazing quarter-century, Turning Point with David Jeremiah is celebrating 25 years of national television broadcasting.

Experience the full interactive Multichannel News Release here: https://www.multivu.com/turning-point-for-god/9323353-en-turning-point-with-david-jeremiah-celebrates-25-years-national-broadcasting

The milestone was celebrated this summer with a reflective look at where the show began, how the national broadcast came into existence, and where it’s at today. Hosted at Turning Point’s Media Studio in San Diego, California, the celebration was anchored by a panel discussion between founder & host Dr. David Jeremiah, CEO David Michael Jeremiah, and CCO Paul Joiner. It was attended by Turning Point’s entire staff, media partners from across the industry, and local special guests. The panel discussion was then aired on Turning Point’s digital platforms and its app TurningPoint+ throughout the summer season.

Launched in 2000 on Trinity Broadcasting Network, Turning Point with David Jeremiah quickly became known for Dr. Jeremiah’s Bible Strong teaching and its unique, creative show open. Blending biblical themes with innovative storytelling, eye-catching visuals, and high-quality production, the show opened a new medium through which Turning Point could reach diverse audiences with the Gospel.

“Television is such a powerful medium, and the outreach it has given Turning Point has allowed the organization to grow and expand,” said Dr. Jeremiah. “We came to realize that for us, television was not about a program, it’s a message. We determine what message we are trying to communicate, then we build a huge campaign around it. The message is the driving force.”

“That really changed everything for us, and we grew so fast,” added CEO David Micheal Jeremiah. “From those messages come books, study materials, and resources, digital and social media content. It’s a multiplier and creates synergy across the whole organization. The Great Disappearance is a great example of that.”

Radio built a strong foundation for Turning Point’s broadcast, but the television audience has been our most responsive.

“It is an incredible blessing to be celebrating 25 years of continuous national broadcasting. God took something little and made it big. We are reaping the reward of seeds sown in the early days when there were only a few of us running programming. It’s why we are where we are today,” expounded Chief Creative Officer, Paul Joiner.

While Turning Point took time to celebrate 25 years of Turning Point with David Jeremiah on television, it acknowledged that growth in the digital space is enormous and intends to meet that moment. Still, it will be in addition to their current radio and TV programming, not in place of them.

Turning Point with David Jeremiah can currently be seen on 17 national or regional networks and on 160 local stations/affiliates. In addition to its US broadcast, Turning Point with David Jeremiah airs in Canada, Australia, New Zealand and the United Kingdom, as well as in 13 additional languages around the world. Since its 2000 national release, Turning Point with David Jeremiah has aired 101 unique teaching series, and 153 million programs were watched in 2023. Viewers can find their local station here: Turning Point Station Locator and catch up on past episodes on the Turning Point website or the Turning Point+ App.

Dr. David Jeremiah is a renowned Bible teacher, New York Times bestselling author, and founder/host of Turning Point Broadcast Ministry. With over forty years of ministry, his teaching has led to the creation of programming such as ProphecyExplained, BibleStrong.org, Airship Genesis, PassagesTV, Why the Nativity?, PerhapsToday, and The Coming Golden Age to name a few.

Previously, she held executive business roles at Prudential and The Hartford Financial Services Group.

As chair of the board of the United Way of Massachusetts Bay, Wortham has been instrumental in furthering its work and impact in Eastern Massachusetts. Drawing on her unique ability to center people and communities in decision-making, she has helped guide the board and staff in mobilizing resources and advancing strategies that provide more opportunities for people in the region.

“Tammi is a visionary leader who believes in the potential of everyone she works with, whether as the HR leader at Sun Life or as our board chair, guiding our impact in the community,” said Marty Martinez, president and CEO at United Way of Massachusetts Bay.  “Her commitment to our work has been invaluable in our efforts to advance thriving, healthy communities.”

Wortham has also helped to strengthen and diversify non-profit leadership through her support of the United Way Board’s Connection program, which trains and places individuals on boards of community-based organizations. Prior to chairing the board, Wortham served as a lead volunteer for United Way programs and events to engage more women in philanthropy and mentoring.
